Still your biggest goal threat i guess.

Where is your new £50m left back? Is Alonso better than him?

Biggest problem is the manager. Bilic is far superior pro rata of what he has to work with.

Frank has blown £200m and will simply have to be sacked. I hope for your sakes that he's gone by the morning.

Why is Alonso preferred over Emerson? I just don't get it!

If alonso don’t play we win the game. Simple as.

You've spent 200 million and you haven't fixed the main problem, your defence. Why did you sign Harvetz you didn't need him. Give Willian what he wanted and Mount's continuing development meant you would of saved 80 odd million which could of been spent on a top centre half instead you got Thiago Silva who is about 3 years past his best, madness really.

Pretty obvious. Lose alonso we transform the team. Add. A gk and it’s different. Most logical people can see that

Shocking from lampard. Alonso has had enuf of these games to be thrown out the club..
Cho on the left, wow! Transformed
Lampard trying to fit all his toys in the pram and its not working out.

Funny thing all the money spent most of the new buys on the pitch and all the goals were score by academy products.

Team performance as a whole over 90 minutes wasn't terrible at all, silly individual errors. We've played worse than that & been leading at H/T. Could argue it was systematic of underling issues, 100% correct, but as a 45 minute period of football in isolation it didn't concern me.

Lamp's H/T changes were perfect, even the change within the second half putting CHO on the left was correct. The change after the second goal was impulsive, broke the momentum & and I'm pretty sure if he was more experienced he wouldn't have made it (was a naïve, rush of blood move), he got lucky cos IMO we were on track to win that after CHO's goal. If he learns from it, no worries

At H/T I was a lot calmer than I should've been, I knew if Lamps made the correct changes & we scored the first goal the game was well within our reach. Last week I was unsure how I felt, after that I feel cautiously optimistic in a bizarre way. Would've been easy for them to give up (like they kind of did last week after the red card) but they didn't.

Yeah I feel ok now because he has to drop duds like Alonso. Lampard has to learn quick because the last change really killed momentum and was so risky leaving AC as the only cb in the team.
CHO on the left is the player we have been waiting for, everytime he got the ball you could sense the wba players were worried.

Nice Comeback Chelsea.

OP, I'd like to agree with you but it wasn't that good.

Why did you sign Harvetz you didn't need him.

Because he was ripe for the picking

Depends on your prospective. I see what you're saying but I understand where the club were coming from.

Talking about CB's we'd need you're talking best of the best to lead the line type of guy (the VVD figure). Koulibaly's too old to justify the price & Upamecano signed a new deal this summer. Havertz was available now, potentially world class player with guaranteed re-sale value if he reached it, and this was our only window of opportunity, had to seize it. Pragmatic long term decision.

We'll buy a top class CB within the next 12 months. Might even buy Rice (a half measure) before this window closes.
